NAME
Compress::LZMA::External - Compress and decompress using LZMA
SYNOPSIS
use Compress::LZMA::External qw(compress decompress);
my $compressed = compress($raw_data);
my $decompressed = decompress($compressed_data);
DESCRIPTION
The Lempel-Ziv-Markov chain-Algorithm (LZMA) is an data compression
algorithm. It compresses very well (better than gzip and bzip2),
compresses very slowly (much slower than bzip2) but decompresses
relatively quickly.
This module is an interface to the lzma command-line program, available
under Ubuntu with 'sudo apt-get install lzma'.
